Description This necklace has a very simple design and yet is one of the most admired that I've made.

A large net with reddish brown seeds (11/0, I think) and some dark gold ones for the accent points. On the bottom I placed some natural tiny seashells from a mom's old necklace that matched the colour of the beads.
The only thing I'd change is the clasp colour, it would better be dark copper or so, but I didn't have one at the time.

People always admire this piece, some even asked to touch it Maybe it's because of my fair skin and the contrast with the net, I have no idea.

People admire this necklace because it looks like a lot of work!! And I know it is! I'm doing a smaller piece in netting and it's sooooo long and needs so much patience from me! UGH!
So to you! The colours are beautiful and the finishing very nice!

It was a lot of work, but since the design is simple it went on quite well. I have a few which were more time consuming
Thank you for the comment!

(And beware, netting can be strongly addictive, I'm a living example of that )

I think simple netting designs are sometimes the prettiest and this is really pretty! I haven't put a picture on DA but one of my first and favourite pieces I ever made is a simple netting one!

Including the seashells to a simple necklace came up in a moment of inspiration
